https://www.fcc.gov/media/radio/am-query is the new URL for AM query.
Bet you can't guess what the one for FM query is :)
Merry Christmas to those who celebrate...73 and good DX to all from
snowless, strangely warm upstate NY...

And IF you can get into AMQ anymore. I had thought it was phased out &
disabled - perhaps they just changed the urls again.

1540 PA I have conflicting listings for Philadelphia and Bala Cynwyd.
FCC
currently shows Philadelphia, the old WJMJ was also Philadelphia ? Was it
ever really in Bala Cynwyd ?
WHEC became WAXC January 5, 1972. WAXC became WWWG in 1978, if memory
serves. Might have been early 1979.
For many of these questions, the answers reside in the FCC's history
cards, which can be accessed through the AM Query. *IF* the station existed
before 1978, and *IF* its history cards have been scanned, a PDF link will
appear in the detailed search results from AM Query. The scanning is taking
place as resources permit, in alphabetical order based on the station's
callsign as of the end of the history card system in 1978. They are up to
about WK-- now, maybe WL--.
The 1540 Philly question is complicated. In order to get night power, 1540
had to be relicensed from Philadelphia to Bala. (There was never a site
change.) There was a CP grant in the early 1990s, and the CP was actually
built out. But the story goes that the station never paid the consulting
engineer who did the work to put in the new night phasor (at the day
location along Ridge Pike in Roxborough), and after waiting for his bills
to get paid, said engineer went back one night, removed the night equipment
and walked away. The night facility was never rebuilt, no license to cover
the CP was ever filed, and 1540 reverted to daytime-only with Philadelphia
as COL. (It's safe to tell this story now; the engineer in question died
some years back and it's become local broadcast legend, with the added
fillip that it's actually true!)
